[Quality of life and functional status at hospital discharge of patients with COVID-19 in Colombia].
Article in Revista de salud publica (Bogota, Colombia), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the perception of quality of life and functional status after hospital discharge in Colombian patients with COVID-19. Materials and Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in which the SF-36 questionnaire and the post-COVID-19 functional status scale were applied to Colombians in the post-hospital discharge period to assess quality of life and functionality after COVID-19. Results: There were 151 participants, with a mean age of 56.43 years, 68% of whom were men. 79% were in the Care Unit, the average hospital stay was 28.46 days, 22% were smokers, and 64% had comorbidities. There was evidence of a decrease in the perception of health-related quality of life, mainly in the dimensions of vitality (0.47), general health (0.56), and physical role (0.56). There was evidence of functional limitations ranging from minimal to severe. The most frequent persistent symptoms were fatigue, dyspnea, and pain. Conclusions: COVID-19 impacts the perception of quality of life and functionality of surviving patients, even beyond six months after hospital discharge.
